Damn it, and I already bought 3 of the games (I didn't get Melody of Memory due to being dogshit at rhythm games) off of the EGS like a pleb. I guess the only plus is that never bought 'em at full price.

And here I thought the games would forever be damned to Epic, glad to see they finally make it to Steam.

I might have to pick them up if they go on sale, mod support is definitely gonna be fun to mess around with.

KH coming to Steam was inevitable, people just had trouble trying to figure out how long Epic's exclusivity timeframe was and if Disney had any involvement with it.

I know deep down in my heart that Kingdom Hearts is

the Steam Summer Sale

but seriously I am pretty hyped for the modding community in this game, the mod community for ff15 was amazing and made that game a banger. I do hope Square get a shit ton of money from this though because at least they are trying.

Melody of Memory has a one-button mode if you're not great at that genre of game. Good way to practice honestly.

I don't think it was necessarily inevitable - the timing of this paired with Square Enix's announcement to no longer release exclusives suggests to me that Epic probably paid to have these exclusive in perpetuity, but SE bought them out of their previous agreement.

Maybe they’ll see the error of their ways and put out actual versions of the game on switch instead of cloud bullshit.

I think it's an inevitability after their recent talk of expanding to other platforms. If the Switch 2 is as powerful as rumoured, it could easily handle KH1-3 and all the games in-between.

EDIT:
Oh, speaking of Switch 2 this just popped up on my twitter feed.

It seems they are pretty far on KH4 development too, I am not so apprehensive as with 3 because the engine issues mid dev cycle which fucked the game up. I am just glad Square are realizing now that they are not beholden to Sony but the other way around. Sony exclusives have been shit since Spider-man 1. PC has allowed Sony to make bank for a decade at least. I do think they will cut ties with Epic store IF KH on June 13th does gang busters fuck hype it up even put some stuff in FF14 and just cross-pollinate the audience more.

Apologies if I seem "passionate" but Square and Capcom seem to be the only studios trying atm, we need studios like them to do well to avoid being swallowed by entities like Microshit.

 

[marvlouslie]

I just want to see more seething from Sony fanboys. Square telling Sony to "fuck off" has been one of the funniest things I've seen all year.

 

[Tony Martin's Force Ghost]

Agreed, they were hypocritical fucks when it come the the MS Acti/Blizz hearings and it really shown how arrogant and out of touch they are. I will actually recant my earlier statement though Ghost of Sushi was samey, it at least was different but it should have been challenging like a souls game. Since I saw the Santa Monica department using fucking DSP as an archetype of their customer base, that was such a red flag. Those ESG fucks wrecked Rebirth and it seems like it was a wake up call, I no doubt Sony were behind some of that too with their drive of putting ugly af girl boss protags everywhere with black people.

Square-Enix have their moments of stupidity, but their games are usually high quality. Re:MIND fixed a lot of the issues the base game of KH3 had, so I can't wait to see how KH4 continues to improve on things.

On another note entirely: KH might be coming to Fornite, along with other IP crossovers.

The FF9 Remake makes sense FF14 put in a bunch of 9 references in Dawntrail and I was actually thinking yesterday about that banger of a game, christ the soundtrack alone is art. This is great news if true.

The story/plot is still pants-on-head retarded

Sure, but that's kind of one of the biggest appeals of KH.

 

[Whirus]

Can someone explain the whole Epic Games Store thing? I get people hate it but it has to be more than just I don't want to make another account or download another launcher, right?

I wouldn't be surprised if KH comes to Lorcana (Disney's recent foray into trading card games) in the near future, that shit's been doing well for them when compared to the KH TCG that kind of withered up and died after 7 sets dropped in Japan (the US got four 'em but Fantasy Flight Games, the company that was localizing the game, discontinued their published TCGs).

Don't forget the whole spyware thing that people were harping about a few years ago.

Did the HD Remixes not run good before? I bought them way back when they first came out on PS3 like a decade ago and I remember the games ran pretty well from what I remember.
